What is Advanced Laser Pocket Disinfection ?
Advanced Laser Pocket Disinfection (ALPD) is a modern dental treatment used to eliminate harmful bacteria from periodontal (gum) pockets. Gum pockets form when gum tissue pulls away from the teeth due to gum disease, creating spaces where bacteria and plaque accumulate.
In Laser Pocket Disinfection, a soft-tissue laser is used to target and destroy bacteria within these pockets—without cutting or suturing.
For this reason, Camas Periodontics advises that in addition to cleaning, our patients' teeth should be decontaminated.The laser energy penetrates the infected area, killing bacteria, reducing inflammation, and promoting healing of the gums.
